Experiences? Which one do y'all recommend?

This is particularly harmful to little boys. The genital area is the thinnest layer of skin where it is easily and it has been known to hinder their organ development and cause infertility (it impacts little girls too) Many sanitary pads have been found to have them too so women.

Has anyone been on the progesterone-only birth control pill or had the copper IUD? What was your experience like? I’m 32 yrs old, tried the combo/generic version of Loestrin Fe 1/20 for 2 months, and it made me suicidal so I stopped taking it.

So I had my daughter 9 months ago and I haven't had a menstrual cycle since before I had her because I breastfeed her on September 19 I got the nexplanon in my arm and today I woke up having menstrual bleeding. Is this from getting the nexplanon ?

I stopped birth control in January normal period, missed period for 3 months had a period for 35 days. August and September normal period now I’m cd 3...

I feel the need to use the toilet, even when I have just been, and nothing comes out but feels like my bladder is full. I discussed it with my midwife but she told me my urine test doesn’t show any signs of a UTI or any other infections. Just wanted to know if anyone could give advice as it can get quite uncomfortab...

Partner and I had sex a week ago, app said I was ovulating that day, so I took a plan B the next day. Got my first postpartum period on the 16th of last month, so I’m due for my period again in 8 days. We had sex last night, and now I’m bleeding, but it’s brown. Could it be that the Plan B has brought my period on e...

Can Clomid or Letrozole help ovulation even if my periods are very irregular, like 45-50 day cycles?

Since having my baby, I saw a gynaecologist because I couldn’t put tampons in anymore, they would just fall out straight away. The gynaecologist said that nothing was wrong inside of me, no prolapse and stuff. My daughter is nearly 2 years and I still can’t put a tampon up. I despise pads with a passion, they irrita...

Maybe it’s just NYC where it’s always go go go and people (especially doctors) are not talkative, but I feel like I’m driving everything. If it wasn’t for my questions, the appointment would be over in 10 seconds. I thought I’d be guided more, and told what to do proactively. Instead, I feel like I’m always guiding ...
